Opinion Columnist Zara Cheek '28 introduces her column, Big Red, White and You, drawing from her experiences as a mixed-race student and her desire to encourage her readers to think about how current social and political issues impact and intersect with campus activities and culture. "In an era when educational institutions are increasingly politicized by external forces, creating internal spaces for reflection and discussion is not a luxury, it’s a necessity."
